Two performances offer families a choice: a Sensory Friendly concert at 2pm and a Family Friendly concert at 4pm. Free admission; reservations required.
Families are invited to an afternoon of adventure, heroes and movie music when the Georgia Symphony Orchestra presents Adventure Awaits! Movie Music for the Whole Family on Saturday, September 12, at the Jennie T. Anderson Theatre at the Cobb Civic Center, 548 S Marietta Parkway SE, Marietta.
Selections from The Lord of the Rings, Spider-Man, Robin Hood, Wonder Woman and more will bring the excitement of the movies to life through the sound of a live symphony orchestra.
Thanks to the generosity of Arylessence, Spellers Center Atlanta, and United Contractor Services, both performances are free to the community. Ticket reservations are required, with separate ticket links for each performance. Costumes are encouraged for both shows!

The Georgia Symphony Orchestra has presented Sensory Friendly concerts for more than 25 years as part of its commitment to making live music accessible to everyone.

Orchestra’s commitment to creating a welcoming, accommodating environment for individuals with sensory sensitivities and their families. Creating a place where families can come just as they are, experience beautiful music and feel that their community understands and cares about them is a gift that cannot be measured.”
4-4:50pm — FAMILY FRIENDLY CONCERT
Sponsored by United Contractor Services, the 4pm Family Friendly Concert invites audiences of all ages to experience the energy and excitement of movie music performed live by the Georgia Symphony Orchestra.
Whether it’s a family’s first symphony concert or part of a longtime love of orchestral music, Adventure Awaits! promises an afternoon filled with heroes, adventure, imagination and music.
